My First Experiences with DXM

First trip: February 27, 2009 (310 mg)

9:05 p.m. Took nearly 3 oz. of Robo Cough

9:15 p.m. I feel fine, my mouth is minty from brushing my teeth after dosing, I think that the whole ‘not consuming anything substantial since lunch’ (and it was a light lunch) is going to make the dxm work faster… Maybe I’m just anxious but my typing is being retarded like every once in a while I skip a letter but I’m going back and fixing the mistakes at the moment. I’m just talking to Gary and Autumn and doing a little bit of texting. J

9:25 p.m. There’s a slight loosening feeling in my head, no major changes.

10:00 p.m. My legs felt barely wobbly as I got up to go pee… I wonder if I took enough?  I downed another half oz just to be sure I get where I need to be at some point. I most definitely will have a low 2^nd plat trip. I’m cool bro.

10:25 p.m. It took forever, but it finally hit me. My legs feel thicker and heavier. My movements are like moving a brick… yeah. Lol. Music sounds pretty good, I’m hoping it gets better.

10:37 p.m. I think I might be a bit impatient with this… but it’s been an hour and a half and I want it to just kick in full force already…. Why is it being a cunt???? I feel a bit itchy..

 10:58 I just walked around my room a little bit, I can tell that I am actually getting high, it doesn’t feel like how normal feels. I have to pee again for the third time since 9, how odd.

11:51… If that was a peak that was pathetic…… I feel almost normal again, I don’t know why its being like this, maybe I put too much into it or not enough, maybe I was too distracted? Maybe its not done yet… to the internet!

 It’s the next day at 10:42 a.m. No afterglow. I was definitely high last night. Mildly high. I had the robo-itch, mostly on my head. It did indeed feel wonderous when I scratched it. My legs were really wobbly and heavy, but definitely not enough for me to have a robot-like walk or anything. It was interesting to go up stairs. Listening to music was somewhat different, I felt it thumping throughout my body. The visualizer didn’t do much for me, so I just shut my eyes and relaxed. I was really relaxed… I was worried I would fall asleep but I didn’t. It was like I couldn’t. 

This felt very nice, possibly my favorite feeling of the trip, the relaxation. I watched Aqua Teen Hunger Force and enjoyed it, things looked slightly 3D every so often. I ran into my brother upstairs  just as I had peaked. Talking to him was easier, but it felt complex. I wasn’t angry, and I thought of him as a cartoon character. I sat and talked to him, then went back downstairs to my bed.

 I laid in bed feeling like I was sobering up, then I turned on music and relaxed again. The music still sounded nice but It wasn’t like before, sounded more normal. Finally at about 1 a.m. I was confident  that the trip was past the best part so I went to sleep.

I didn’t have any nausea, I thought the syrup tasted good. I could have taken more with no problem at all. The best description for this trip would be to say…. It was like being in a fish bowl. The biggest effect was visually. That is what reminded me of being in a fish bowl. I stayed in my room or at least in my house the entire time. Music was echo-y. No paranoia.

Looking back, I think that I only took enough for a solid low 2nd plateau. Next time I’m going to take a bottle and between a third and a half of another bottle.

This was a very good experience, I will definitely try it again. I was expecting too much from it this time, I don’t’ know if that effected how I experienced the effects, though. It left me wanting more. Next time, I think I’ll get that. 

Here's to a long, healthy romance with Dextromethorphan.
